The correct answer is 7.7 million.
The report by CapGemini and Merrill Lynch showed that the number of high net worth individuals rose by 7.5 per cent to 7.7 million individuals. Their assets too grew by 7.7 per cent to $28.8 trillion. The survey counts those with $1 million in assets, excluding home real estate. The main reasons for the increase in rich people are a strong stock market rally and solid, global economic growth. In particular, wealthy investors in the US, China and India were able to capitalise on these trends despite a great deal of geopolitical uncertainty, the study said.
